Our Mission

We aspire to be the best pre-scale digital health investors out there. That means our focus is on helping founders lay the best foundations for their companies to scale and succeed.

Been there, done that

We founded companies. Scaled them. Took them public, sold them, and managed multi-billion dollar businesses.

So we know how difficult your journey is. Those first steps of trying to build something game changing. And we love the challenges involved. That’s why we focus exclusively on supporting pre-scale startups within digital health.What is pre-scale?
Everything that comes before a ready to execute plan for marketing, selling and servicing customers in a repeatable way.

Contributing our unique combination of experience, network, and tools, we help exceptional founders lay the best foundations for their companies to scale and succeed.

LionBird offers founders a distinct edge

A powerful co-investor network

80%+ of LionBird’s initial investments have attracted significant institutional-led follow on financing (compared to 20% industry avg). We do our part by helping with the right introductions and preparations. Our internal systems include a growing database of warm intros that we can provide to top downstream investors.

Prepared for the good and bad

Whether it’s helping your company through tough times or doubling down on success, we are committed to seeing our companies through the pre-scale phase and reserve follow-on funds to invest in your company’s future capital requirements.

Strategic partner relationships

Our past experience gave us a chance to build warm relationships with strategic partners within the health care market. Let our connections work for you.

LionBird Rings

LionBird’s community includes proven healthcare executives and entrepreneurs who have partnered with us in the past and are available as a resource to our portfolio companies.

Feel for the market

Our digital health focused approach means we can help you get the right information from strategic partners, other portfolio companies and downstream investors that helps you define the unique KPIs for your business (and fundraising) success.

"Do no harm" policy

We confidently let founders own their decision-making. This means we only advise at strategic points when consulted, not at every opportunity. To do this well, we build expertise in your specific challenges so that when big problems surface, we can tackle it from a common place.

Ask our founders

Feel free to contact any of the founders we’ve worked with in the past to ask them about their experience working with us.
